Advocacy
The GBCA is continuing to engage with all levels of government and advocate its 'green building agenda', which outlines the five priorities which it believes will place Australia on a clear, long-term pathway to sustainability.
These five green building priorities are:
- Provide visionary government leadership
- Retrofit and improve existing buildings
- Green education and healthcare facilities
- Move beyond buildings to communities and cities
- Embed green skills across all industry training
We believe these priorities, if effectively addressed, will help transition Australia's green building practices from 'voluntary to vital'.
